I heard only problems are head gasket and reverse band in transmission. If it lived up north there could be rust issues too. Being that it is convertible too I would watch for top hydraulics they tend to leak. Otherwise no other known issues.
Been a while since I've seen one of those. Came out around 2000.
It has a Sanyo electric motor, and uses 24 Ni-Cd batteries in a custom battery pack to drive the motor.
It assists only, there is no regenerative braking.
The bad news: the NiCd battery packs were obsoleted quickly and are NLA. There is a Kevlar belt between the motor and the wheel hub. Don't know if the belt is still available but wouldn't hold my breath.
The good news: No OVP relay on this model, and no spreader bar needed to do a proper alignment.
Probably best to stick with a traditional bike, like this one although it is now known as the DeWalt. Same thing just, a different badge in the proper General Merchandise way after the Tuhminator mobile was killed off due to the massive cashbleed tumah.
Changed a lot in ten years then
Saw one at MBWorld, surprisingly impressive, if you like that sort of thing, short about six cylinders for me, but think of the polar bears daahling...
